The hole Emo thing is really beginning to fuck me off, I love many of the pop punk kinda bands like MCR and Taking Back Sunday, The Used, and other mainstream artists along those lines, but I don't consider them Emo, or emotive hardcore or emotional or whatever It actually stands for, basically they are punk rock. There songs are about death and the afterlife and other such subjects, so how there fans can say these subjects saved there lives I don’t know. The way its portrayed in general in the media is stupid, you get the daily mail coming up with complete crap every few weeks about My Chemical Romance being a death cult – no its many of the fans being idiots with all this MCR saved my life bollocks, I very much doubt they did and seeming as its almost every stupid 12 year old black parade listening idiot that says that very line. People need to get it in there head they are just a band, they are just normal people who write songs and perform them, they might have had chart success and all that but there nothing special! I think there great but seriously I think both the media and the fans need to grow up and move away from all the Emo cult rubbish.
